The banana - the atheist's and evolutionist's nightmare
The banana - the atheist's and evolutionist's nightmare
A website declares:
"The theory of evolution of the Coca Cola can.
Billions of years ago, a big bang produced a large rock. As the rock cooled, sweet brown liquid formed on its surface. As time passed, aluminum formed itself into a can, a lid, and a tab. Millions of years later, red and white paint fell from the sky, and formed itself into the words "Coca Cola 12 fluid ounces."
Of course, my theory is an insult to your intellect, because you know that if the Coca Cola can is made, there must be a maker. If it is designed, there must be a designer. The alternative, that it happened by chance or accident, is to move into an intellectual free zone.
The banana - the atheist's nightmare.
Note that the banana:
Is shaped for human hand
Has non-slip surface
Has outward indicators of inward content:
Green-too early,
Yellow-just right,
Black-too late.
Has a tab for removal of wrapper
Is perforated on wrapper
Bio-degradable wrapper
Is shaped for human mouth
Has a point at top for ease of entry
Is pleasing to taste buds
Is curved towards the face to make eating process easy
To say that the banana happened by accident is even more unintelligent than to say that no one designed the Coca Cola can.
TEST ONE
The person who thinks the Coca Cola can had no designer is:
___ A. Intelligent
___ B. A fool
___ C. Has an ulterior motive for denying the obvious"

Have you ever seen a Coke can reproduce? Hrm, me neither. Maybe that's not a good analogy for living things.

Bloody brilliant!
And isn't it amazing how water evolved in just the right way for fish to be able to swim in it?
Ken, you'd have to be an idiot to find this "banana" stuff compelling.

bananas are no problem
The banana is a fruit; in the earlier species of bananas, it contained seeds. By putting its seeds in a yummy, easy to eat fruit, animals would eat it and spread the seeds (and planting them in a nice pile of fertilizer, to boot). The banana evolved to be good eating. The "design" of the banana can be explained through evolution.
Nice try, though. Finally.
quote:
To say that the banana happened by accident is even more unintelligent than to say that no one designed the Coca Cola can.
Of course, evolution has nothing to do with accidents. No one said that the banana happened by accident.
So, are you bailing out of the other threads? Are you admitting that you cannot win those arguments?

It has been strongly suggested to Ken, by AM, that he not start any further topics, as he isn't defending any of the numerous ones he has already started.
http://EvC Forum: Who is getting tired of Ken's ridculous post?
Closing this one down. I'll let Admoose decide whether or not to follow thru with the suspension, but closing this one down.
